Reading the bands
Size, age and price together shape what a budget buys. Newer homes usually cost more per square foot and older homes can carry repair or update decisions, so the right band depends on what you want to own and maintain. Numbers like these describe the whole of Hempstead, not one street or one home, and real estate decisions are rarely a straight line.
